WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR IN GLYFADA
Glyfada has Mount Hymettus on one side and the sea on the other. Wonderful for walks, but there are a few risks worth knowing about.
⛰️
Walks on Mount Hymettus
In Terpsithea and Ano Glyfada, check your dog for ticks after every walk, especially around the ears, neck, and between the toes. Ticks transmit diseases such as ehrlichiosis, so regular parasite prevention is essential.
🦟
Leishmaniasis
It is endemic in Attica and transmitted by sand flies, mainly in summer and during the evening. Protection includes repellent collars or spot-on treatments, vaccination where appropriate, and an annual test, which is easily done at home.
🌊
Sea and heat
Pavements and sand can burn paws. Walk early or late, and always bring fresh water. Seawater can cause vomiting and diarrhea. Flat-faced breeds, such as bulldogs and pugs, are especially at risk of heatstroke.
Processionary caterpillars (late winter through spring): Caterpillars that move in a “procession” under pine trees can cause a severe allergic reaction and tongue tissue necrosis. If your dog comes into contact with one, gently rinse their mouth with plenty of water without rubbing, and go immediately to the nearest veterinary clinic.
